Ken jy vir Dewie?

A co-production of KKNK, Suidoosterfees and Momentum Beleggings Aardklop

WITH Crystal Donna Roberts, Robert Hindley en Joshwin Dyson SCRIPT Ilne Fourie DIRECTOR Margit Meyer-Rödenbeck PRODUCERS Margit Meyer-Rödenbeck en Ilne Fourie

Dewie de Jager is a regular guy, not the type mothers warn their matric daughters against. He is the type that smiles shyly, then looks away, because it’s embarrassing for you both – what’s his name again? Deon? Dewald? Donald? Whatever! But through it all, everyone yearns for one thing: acceptance. To belong. To be a legend that everybody will talk about. To be seen all over. On classroom walls. On front pages. On Google searches. To be the hero of every loser who must defend his wickets at break time, his lunchbox, his kneecaps, his glasses, the sarmies his mom packed and his tuckshop money...

The script was originally presented as reading theatre at the KKNK’s Teksmark in 2023. “Al + een = alleen. . . Daai is die most brutal wiskundesom. En jy het nie wiskunde G nodig om te weet jy is f*cked nie. . .”
